Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

what does "order to quash mean in illinois? I have served the father of my 10 yr old son to appear in court, he never showed each time, a body attachment was issued to case the last court appearance I had and now I received a quash order and have a court dte in 1/11/11. My son's father does not have court ordered custody, I sent him to live with him when I lost my home and job in another state until I got back on my feet, my son's father was suppose to return my son to me but has not done so, what does this all mean in my case? Will I get my son back, his father will not let me see my son at all, I used to be able to get him on the weekends, but his father won't allow me to talk to or pick up my son now. We live in Chicago.
